Technically born in Wilmington, but since most associate him with UNC, as in Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill, I'm claiming Michael Jordon.

And I'm from Charlotte so I'll also claim Steph Curry.

Actually, Jordan was born in Brooklyn. I could claim him but since his family moved to NC when was very young I don't. -- nm - Krusty Aug 1, 09:22 2
- Oh dang I just saw Cumberland Hospital. I thought they meant Cumberland down here and didn't actually look at it. -- nm - sycor Aug 1, 09:24 1
  - Funny coincidence. His family moved to NC when he was 4 or 5 so we can claim him but he wasn't raised here so I don't think it really counts. - Krusty Aug 1, 09:32 [youtube]
And Berkoff, NC State swimmer, just won a medal. So that's pretty dope. -- nm - sycor Aug 1, 09:19
